This topic explains several preformatted reports that assist you in the picking of production batch materials, ticketing of materials to use in production, evaluating scheduled batch and firm planned order production activities, assessing variances in actual and calculated batch yield, and evaluating unusual usage cost variances. The procedures for running the Item Substitution for Batches, Ingredient Picking, and Migration Recreate Open Batches concurrent programs are presented.
This chapter covers the following topics:
The Batch Pick List report identifies the material that must be picked for production batches. If you allocate ingredients before releasing batches, then the Batch Pick List report identifies the lots that must be picked and the warehouse locations. Use the Batch Pick List report as a guide to picking material before actual allocation.

Item Substitution for Batches is a concurrent program that substitutes the given items in the pending batches that match the effective date range. The concurrent program substitutes the item and displays the output that lists the updated batches and errors encountered during the substitution. You can run this program from the Process Execution Concurrent Programs window or directly from the Batch Details window Inventory menu.
Note: The batches that are placed on hold in Stop mode are not included.

Batch planned start date
Ingredient requirement date
Batch planned completion date
Pending batches with a start date later than the date entered are updated with the substitute item.
Enter the End Date. Pending batches with an Ingredient Substitution Date, as defined in the Process Execution Parameters window, between the Start Date and End Date are updated after you run the concurrent program. If the End Date is not specified, then all pending batches later than the Start Date are updated.
Click OK.
Click Submit. Note the Request ID number.
